This management system for a computer system including a plurality of elements for which performance values are to be monitored generates one or more plans on the basis of: a performance value history of a specific bottleneck (an element that has been identified as the cause of a detected failure); management information that includes information indicating, for each countermeasure, the relation between a plurality of countermeasure attributes and a plurality of bottlenecks; and a countermeasure attribute corresponding to the specific bottleneck, and displays the one or more plans thus generated. Each of the displayed one or more plans includes one or more countermeasures. In each of the displayed one or more plans, each of the one or more countermeasures is classified into one of a plurality of countermeasure types.

An AV function section is provided with a standby mode serving to reduce power consumption during standby. An embedded controller provides such control as shifts or recovers the AV function section to or from the standby mode. Further, a network processor accepts, via a network such as a wireless LAN, a command causing the AV function section to shift to or recover from the standby mode. On the basis of this command, the network processor instructs, via a control signal line, the embedded controller to shift or recover the AV function section to or from the standby mode.

A power control driver of a BIOS has a function of changing a frequency of clock supplied to a CPU. According to the function of the power control driver, it is possible to set a normal mode for showing the CPU capability to the maximum and a power saving mode for preferentially taking power saving rather than the CPU capability. A power control utility program carries out the following power saving control. The program shifts a system to the normal mode when an AV application program operating an encoder and a decoder required for showing the CPU capability to the maximum is operating. In addition, the program shifts the system to the power saving mode when the program is not operating even if application programs other than the program are operating.

A revocation list is registered a public ROM area. The revocation list designates at least one electronic device in which use of the storage medium by the designated electronic device is to be revoked. A controller receives from the electronic device which attempts to access, identification information indicative of the electronic device, and checks whether identification information corresponding to the received identification information is contained in the revocation list, thereby determining whether or not use of the storage medium by the electronic device which attempts to access should be revoked.

Storage medium and contents protection method using the storage medium

In a mutual authentication method for use between a recording apparatus which records copied contents on a recording medium having an arithmetic processing function, and the recording medium, the method includes a step of storing in the recording medium at least first information which depends on the recording medium, and second information which is to be shared by the recording apparatus in executing mutual authentication with the recording apparatus and depends on the recording medium, and a step of generating by the recording apparatus authentication information used in mutual authentication with the recording medium on the basis of the first information obtained from the recording medium, and executing mutual authentication between the recording apparatus and the recording medium using the generated authentication information and the second information.
